I haven't been out there in years, but back in the early 90's I found a pygmy at Nathan Bedford Forest on a trail not far from that museum that overlooks the river.

I generally go on a camping/observation trip every other weekend to some place in middle or west Tennessee. I'm now planning a trip for next weekend to Shelby County to see what i can turn up, and since i have a digital camera now, i'll be able to get better pics. Supposed to rain friday and sunday, so i may get to take a day trip Saturday, probably to Camden now that you reminded me about that pygmy in NBF.

The disposable camera photos of the snake in question in my original post turned out to look like anything from a garter snake to a python... pretty much you can tell is it's a dark colored snake, but it's just a blur, so not worth getting it scanned and on the computer.
